Angela Rayner, the housing secretary, is urged to resolve a "unwelcome" heritage dispute that could hinder skyscraper development in the City of London, preserving views of the Tower of London. The planning row, reignited by a housing minister in June, threatens investment in office space and economic growth. The City Property Association (CPA), representing nearly 200 major developers, warned that restricted skyscrapers could cost £1.2 billion annually.
The CPA's leaders urged Rayner to meet and discuss the impact on the economy, which the City of London supports.
